"I mean, it's a regular dating app. But you can fill in if are poly, open, monogamous, married etc. And it will match you to similar people. "
And you'll still get cockwombles |

At least you can blame it on an algorithm  |

"Iv been on and set up a profile, not many people close by so far"
You should answer a load of the personality questions in the mean time to get a better match. |

"There’s a group on face book for polyamory Ireland. It has all the details of meets and supports In Ireland. "
Would the ratio of the aforementioned cockwombles be high there? |

Poly dating is quite difficult on Ireland tbh.
Joined the Irish Poly group on Facebook and unless you fit into their criteria of polyamory you are not made feel welcome. If you are an M/F couple wanting to meet a woman you are accused of being a unicorn hunter and pretty much ignored.
Oh and read up on ALL the labels and names, pronouns of sexuality and Poly lifestyle or you are classed as ignorant.
Funny thing its mostly female members who are outraged all the time. |

I suspect the issue is the number of couples who don't really understand that polyamoury isn't about sex and theeways. It's about relationships. "Poly" meaning multiple and "Amour" meaning love. Not sex. Love. |

Yes we understand polyamory, we have been in a relationship with another woman before.
I understand a predisposition of mistrust towards coming from a swinger background but tarring everyone with the same brush is not the open mindedness that is portrayed.
There is an underlying arrogance with the admins , that their image of polyamory is the only one that counts. |

I suspect mistrust from women on there is from jaded experience of being taken advantage of by couples. They are in a weak position in comparison to a preexisting couple and exposing themselves to hurt and giving the level trust needed is a big ask. I would be very cautious if I were them, PARTICULARLY if said couple had a swinging background. Noone wants to feel used or second best in their love life.
I'm not saying you guys will do this I don't know you at all... its just that this is a pattern that comes up which is probably the cause of the suspicion. |

"Try Feeld it is especially for poly dating and their app is beautiful!
It's not so popular in Ireland so there aren't many profiles on there"
It’s very new so hopefully that changes soon! |

Yeah we get that, but they welcome couples looking for bi men with open arms. If they haven't the ability to treat everyone equally they shouldn't be an admin for the page.
As it is we are more likely to find someone in the swinging community who is also looking for more. As it is we enjoy both lifestyles and sit happily between both. |

My understanding of okcupid is if you list as non-monogamous looking ONLY for the same, your profile won't be visible to all the mono people... so it's good for people looking for real relationships but not to risk being exposed as a bit different to the vanilla folk.
Also if partnered you can link to their profile. |
